4/7 - x = 6/35
You're trying to get x by itself, so you have to subtract 4/7 from both sides.
-x = 6/35 - 4/7
You need both of the fractions to the right of the equal sign to have the same denominator so that we could simplify them, so multiply 5/5 to -4/7.
-4 /7 × 5/5 = -20/35
So, our new equation is :
-x = 6/35 - 20/35
Simplify.
-x = -14/35
Divide both sides by -1.
x = 14/35
Divide by 7.
x = 2/5

Answer:
y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
0.75y−1.5y+0.5=5
0.75y+−1.5y+0.5=5
(0.75y+−1.5y)+(0.5)=5(Combine Like Terms)
−0.75y+0.5=5
−0.75y+0.5=5
Step 2: Subtract 0.5 from both sides.
−0.75y+0.5−0.5=5−0.5
−0.75y=4.5
Step 3: Divide both sides by -0.75.
Hope this helps!

40 = x% of 32
32x = 40
x = 40/32
x = 1.25
multiply by 100 to convert to percentage...
x = 125%
40 is 125% of 32
U just have to find original amount (100%) and that is the amount he made last week.
